Openismus day 86: Got initial class structure of Merkmal compiling and commited. Doesn't do anything and still needs considerable changes. #

Openismus day 85: More Merkmal hacking. Detour into what it would take to build clutter-gtk to gtk3. Reviewed signals and refptr's in gtkmm. #

Openismus day 84: Remember kids, if you wanna waste time w/ weird errors just forget to call clutter's init function in your clutter app. #

Openismus day 83: Small change to clutter-gtkmm: http://ur1.ca/1ur4h. Fought with jhbuild a bit. Getting weird error in Merkmal. #

Openismus day 76: murrayc showed me the proper way to fix cluttermm bug. Committed fix for that and a few other issues. http://ur1.ca/1o8sp #

Openismus day 75: Found the problem with cluttermm. Clutter::Alpha::get_timeline() was the culprit. Came up with a fix that worked. #

Openismus day 74: Went thru clutter code to see what tutorial program is doing. emacs+gdb+gtags (GNU Global) is nice for this. More gdb too. #

Openismus day 73: Took a bit of a detour to go deeper into gdb. Think I've pretty much gone though the entire manual. Back to cluttermm bug. #

Openismus day 72: Struggling with the bug in cluttermm. Maybe I should first understand what the clutter c code is doing. #

Openismus day 71: Learned to use gdb to debug reference counting issues in GObject-based code. http://ur1.ca/1lrpi & comments were helpful. #

Openismus day 65: With murrayc's help, found fix for cluttermm_tutorial segfault. Requires going deeper into *mm bindings. Will commit soon. #

Openismus day 64: tbf helped try to find cause of segfault in cluttermm_tutorial. Still couldn't fix it. Learnt some advanced gdb stuff. #

Openismus day 63: Think I fixed yesterday's bug. cluttermm-tutorial still segfaults a few lines later, though. Got GNOME git commit access! #

Openismus day 62: Looked through lots of *mm libraries to get an idea of how things are really done. Tracked down another bug in cluttermm. #

Openismus day 60: Learning M4 as it seems useful for autotools and C++/*mm bindings. ION, BBQ at Openismus office on Friday 27th, August. #

Openismus day 59: Looking into cluttermm_tutorial problems which is leading me into learning more C++-binding stuff, which is fine with me. #

Openismus day 58: Got cluttermm building in jhbuild by adding atkmm dependency. Had to use gtkmm's gtkmm-2.22 branch. Needs 2.24 branch? #

Openismus day 57: Started porting gmemory to use gtkmm. Got autotools stuff converted. Couple minor issues with jhbuild and *mm stuff. #

Openismus day 56: Got emacs configured nicely now. Dropped CEDET for now. Currently using autocompletion, xcscope gccsense, flymake. #

Openismus day 55: My look into gmmproc turned into me spending more time setting up emacs. Issues getting semantic to find system libs. #
